As you listen to music using your headphones, whether in the studio or as you walk, it doesnt feel good receiving noises in the background amid your favorite rhythms. Right? But not all types of headphones are designed to solve this problem. It is therefore important you learn how noise-canceling headphones work, so that you may use them to stamp out noise from your music.

Eliminating irritating sounds from your music, be they whispers from people around you, noises from chirping birds or sounds from passing cars is quite easy at the slightest click of a button.

Specially designed headphones can also regulate the amount of what you may want to hear from your surroundings, courtesy of multi-stage system feature in the models.
So, how do noise-canceling headphones really operate?

Microphones and How They Help in Reducing Sound?

Active noise-canceling headphones have at least one microphone, but not the one spoken to. The microphones are generally on the ear caps. They sense any sound around you and continually record it.

The waveform from such sounds is then taken by some in-built circuitry in the headphones for processing. Another sound is generated from this, similar to a mirror image. That is, the newly created waveform bears a peak upon which the original one would have a channel. This puts the initial one out-of-phase.

The new sound is fed to the speakers. The speakers play both waveforms concurrently, canceling them out. This way, no noise reaches your ears.

For this system to work, electrical energy is required, which is why it is presented as active.

How Does Active Noise Cancelling Work?

The word active is owed to the constant need of a stream of energy to continue working. To uphold functionality, headphones with this feature have one or two rechargeable batteries, the reason they are comparatively heavy.

Unfortunately, active noise canceling may not be perfect always, notably if the sound involved is very random or sudden. Moreover, the variations in the technology exist between manufacturers. Notwithstanding these, the mechanics of operation remains the same.

How Does Passive Noise Reduction Work?

Unlike in active noise canceling, sound waves are not put out-of-phase here, the reason this feature doesnt take the name cancelling, but reduction or isolation.

In this feature, ears are simply blocked. By virtue of headphones being thick-enough, adequately padded and sealed to cover the ears, extraneous noises, and sounds are kept away from reaching the ears.

With in-ear headphones, inserting them sufficiently deep will add to the effectiveness. This ensures that only those sounds coming from the speakers of the headphones will be heard.

Final Thoughts

If you want to get the best quality of what you listen using your headphones, then keeping noise away would be imperative. How can you achieve this? By just understanding how noise-canceling headphones work, you can manipulate them to keep unnecessary sounds off your ears and enjoy the clarity of what you are listening to.

The internet is a unique thing to civilization, with a practical and an idealistic definition which people interchange at will. Classically the internet is a collection of servers all over the world sharing their information through high speed wireless, phone lines, and satellites. In this sense, it's entirely possible that the internet will outlive us all as this technology is the base for so many other things; mobile phones, universities, research, libraries, media, advertising and much more. However there is another side of the internet which most people know; the free sharing of ideas and information, available to all as a human right.

Servers are built to last, and because so many empires are built upon them, it's likely that they will exist in one way or another throughout the rest of time; a way of keeping networks connected. Many companies or organizations have an internal internet, such as learning portals or back-end things. These are generally known as intranet, and are the basis for even less connected things like deliveries and retail stores. Their own private internet, not connected to the external internet except by monitored passages or gateways.

For this aspect of the internet, it's like saying 'will phone lines last forever?'. They require maintenance, and some places do not have them, but the concept of them will likely last for as long as we do. They are a convenient, easy to install method of transferring data, and much more is based off of phone lines than you might expect. Though satellites may have electrical disturbances such as solar flares, the basest level of technology in phone lines can still be used. This is, experts believe, how the internet will work once the newest technological revolution comes about. This happens all the time in history, such as with telegrams; the submarine lines are still there and usable, but people do not anymore because better options have come about. Even more recently, with the change from using 2G to 3G to 4G on mobile phones; the systems are still available, just disused. The base of the internet will always be around, because information still needs to be shared worldwide in this day and age.

As for the popular aspect of the internet as a free-speech centre, the future is much less certain. Already, organizations are attempting to privatize the internet for their own gain. The most recent example is obviously America and their Net Neutrality debating, where senators of states were lobbied by ISPs such as Comcast to repeal the laws keeping the internet free. Of course, people still have to pay for the internet, but everyone should have to pay a flat price to access the entire internet, while Comcast is trying to get people to pay more to access certain free sites. Net Neutrality may well be the downfall of the internet, and it doesn't look like people have much of a say in the matter.

Internet censorship is likely just the first step in the downfall of the internet as we know it, and many suspect that in future years people will look back on these years as the 'golden years of the internet'. This is already seen in some, less democratic, countries such as North Korea, where they have a country wide private internet/intranet known as Kwangmyong. Here they do not have access to the global internet, and can only use the propaganda filled intranet available to them. For North Korea, the golden age of the internet has already gone, and it appears as a matter of time before organizations are doing the same.

Odds are, we will always have access to 'an internet', but we won't have access to the full, unabridged internet we know today. Fortunately for the savvy user, the dark web is much less regulated, and using a browser such as Tor can get around most of these roadblocks. Or you could spoof your IP to that of a more-free country. But let's face it; you shouldn't have to.

Internet privacy is a massive hot-button topic all over the world in late 2017, and shows no sign of slowing down. It's well known that for years now certain aspects of being online have been tracked by users or organizations, and understandably, alot of people aren't happy about it. There is a massive range of tracking online, GPS tracking of phones to IP routing to connection monitoring, and barely anyone tells the user that they are tracking them.

The long standing argument that governments use to condone tracking is 'if you have nothing to hide, why do you mind being tracked?'. This is a kind of straw man argument, and it simply does not address that people around the world have a right to privacy. It's that simple.

Understandably, this tracking started with the best intentions; keeping people safe. Anyone looking up bomb schematics and building plans should be kept an eye on, in the interest of public safety, but the line becomes much more blurred after that. Public safety is, in most peoples' opinions, the only reason tracking should occur. But in 2017 people are tracked every day for advertising and targeted attacks, which is far beyond public safety.

Keeping your privacy online will become alot easier for UK and EU residents in May of 2018, when GDPR comes into full effect, but even then there are illegal tracking processes that occur every day for every person online.

Most modern smartphones come with GPS as default, which can supposedly be turned off in the settings. However even by doing this, the location of a smartphone can still be tracked to within around 15m in an urban environment, and around 100m in a rural or remote setting. Triangulation occurs whenever the phone network is in use, and background data is almost always on for smartphones. The only way of avoiding this while still having a phone is to downgrade to a 'burner' and remove the sim when not in use; a far cry from the kind of privacy people desire.

Android even tracks people by Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections, with the largest collection of Named Data Networks on the planet accumulated from users without their permission. It's an intense search to disable these settings, but it can be done. Of course, it can also be turned back on remotely without the users permission, but this only happens with legal investigations or malicious users targeting the user. Still not very private.

Using almost any computer online is traceable, and requires alot of setup to remain private. Social Media has GPS and location services enabled by default, and may require rooting a device to turn this off. There is also Exif data which is traceable, meaning any photo uploaded into an unsecure website can be traced to coordinates and device with only a few clicks.

Even the most commonly used websites like Google track your data, purportedly for SEO purposes, but their tracking reaches another level.

The only easy way to maintain anonymity online through a computer is the use of a 'Tails' bootable drive, and generous use of Tor with 'privateinternetaccess'. Tails uses a micro OS with no tracking or cookies, while Tor is a browser used to access the World Wide Web, Deep Web, or Dark Web. Tor routes all connections through over 150 different IP addresses per second, and is the closest thing to untraceable you can easily achieve. Privateinternetaccess is a VPD service which is the only one in history which is proven to not store logs of any users data, after they refused to comply with an FBI order a few years ago.

Privacy online is hard to come by, but if someone is willing to set up their system for a few hours it can be achieved. The real question is, should this even be necessary?

If you have a new website to design you have a wide selection of choices when it comes to choosing a platform. To build a site from scratch using HTML, CSS and perhaps some JavaScript libraries requires website development experience and more skills and knowledge than the average website owner possesses.

One way of still being able to cover the website build yourself is to choose an established platform that helps remove the need for programming skills. One such solution is to go down the road of using a content management system. You may see plenty of new content management systems (CMS) being introduced on the web, but WordPress remains the best and most popular.

The WordPress platform is popular with both experienced web designers and DIY newbies, as it has everything that you'll need. You can easily put together basic sites quickly but you can also just as easily show off any advanced web design techniques you may have picked up along the way.

Although there has been some criticism of issues with regard to WordPress security, most of this results from the fact that with WordPress being so incredibly popular there are literally millions of WordPress sites out there for hackers to attack. However, by following just a few simple precautions it is not at all difficult to increase the security on your WordPress site.

Whatever you are using your WordPress site for; blogging, company site or online Ecom shop, you'll need to consider security. Listed below are the important things that you must learn about WordPress and the relatively simple security measures that you'll need to put in place.

Importance Of Security
Security is a major part of website development because you not only want to protect the content of your website but also any client data that you might need to collect. It won't really matter if you will use this for blogging or it will be for an ecommerce website since online hackers can rob user information and set up malicious software on the site.

If you are unlucky enough to have your website be hacked the results can be catastrophic. If the hack results in the loss of trust from your customers, it is no exaggeration to say that this could in fact cost you your entire business in the long run.

March 2016, saw Google reveal that they had already informed 50,000,000 website site visitors that sites could contain malware. Further to that, Google penalized more than 20,000 websites because of malware and over 50,000 sites due to phishing.

Keep Your WordPress Updated At All Times
WordPress is an open source software that is updated on a regular basis. It now has settings that enable you to install WordPress core and WordPress plugin updates as soon as they become available without you needing to intervene.

This is extremely important as the updates on this platform usually indicate that security has been compromised. The updates may feature new security measures for the consumers or they may cope with the problems that the online hackers found on the platform.

It is equally important to ensure that all of your plug-ins are updated as soon as possible. Hackers often find it easier to exploit a weakness in a plug-in to gain access to your site. By keeping the WordPress framework and all of your plug-ins up to date you have taken a big step towards improving the security of your website.

Strong Usernames And Passwords - Simple But Effective
If the username and password that you are using at this time are very easy to remember, the online hackers will likely find it easy to crack as well. The best thing that you should do is to use longer and more complex usernames and passwords.

It is better if you will stop using the username "admin" and create your own which is extremely hard to remember. The very first tactic the most hackers employ is attempt to gain access using the admin user account.

As for the password, you'll need to create a strong password that is composed of symbols, capital letters and numbers and it should be very long. If you wish to use a persons name as the username that is fine but just beef up the security by adding a random selection of symbols, letters or numbers either before or after the name.

For some taking on the responsibility of website security is a step too far. For those of you that feel like this you will find a wide selection of WordPress site security experts that will be able to help you. For a little bit of outlay you will get a lot of peace of mind. All the SEO techniques known to man are not going to be able to recover a site with a reputation for malware or phishing.

Its no secret that worldwide sporting events can be seen online. With an Internet connection and streaming device, one can watch his/her favorite team, ballgame or event from any location. In fact, theres nothing stopping any sports fan from watching everything on his/her TV, HDTV, or smart TV.

How to watch sports without cable is easy to do with/without the Internet and cable/satellite TV. Connect an indoor HDTV antenna to any TV and watch live sports from local TV channels in the area. Or watch them online free, with a paid subscription or low-cost access (one-time fee).

Some may think the Internet wont deliver all types of sports, which is further from the truth. Name any sports event, ballgame (pro, college, non-professional, European) and you can watch it when broadcast.

Heres a list of advantages that may eliminate any reluctance to give the Internet a try:

* Connect HDTV or smart TV to any computer and watch sports on big screen

* Watch sports anytime, anywhere

* Great sports backup when TV is down or being used by others

* Can watch two or more sports at once via computer web browsers

* Access to live premium sports TV channels from popular networks

* Access to daily live sports TV schedules

* Can work on computer and watch sports simultaneously

If any of the advantages above strike an interest, then it should be a no-brainer to use the Internet. Make sure you have a fast Internet connection (25 Mpbs or more). Keep in mind, higher the Internet connection speed better the overall performance and picture quality in most cases. Newer devices and fairly new ones perform better than old devices when watching live streaming sports online.

Use a router with WiFi and Ethernet (cable) accessibility. The Internet connection will be much faster when using an Ethernet cable than WiFi (wireless) connection. Heres a thought: Connect the router (Ethernet cable) to the back of the HDTV/Smart TV. Connect other household streaming devices wirelessly (WiFi) to the router.

As for the latter, all devices must connect to the same router to work wirelessly. Connect the computer, smartphone, and other devices wirelessly. This way the Internet connected device can move throughout the household to watch live sports online.

Back to the Internet connections speed having more is better. If possible, get around 150 Mbps connection speed; this amount would be ideal when connecting more than one device to the router. Having this amount of speed will help eliminate video buffering and playback issues. The end result is the ability to watch uninterrupted sports online.

Also, when more people are online using the same ISP (Internet Service Provider) that you are using, can slow things down a bit. A fast Internet connection will eliminate issues when watching a popular sporting event such as the Super bowl online and during peak hours (7 PM-11 PM).

Mobile computing devices are more practical and convenient if you need to carry a small computing device around, but if you have the workspace space at home and you don't need to be working while you are on the move, then a desktop PC that is comparable in cost to a notebook computer is what i suggest you buy.

There are many free downloads (freeware) for TV Software for PC that can be used to watch television online. However, not all are created equally. There are some popular brands and not so popular brands, many of which come no or little support. It would be wise to stay away from those with no history or support when visiting any one of the free download websites.

Try to avoid software that can only be downloaded to old operating systems. This can be a sign the developer hasnt done anything to improve the TV software. Ask yourself why the software isnt compatible to the latest Windows or Mac operating system. This alone should deter you from even trying to download the software to your computer.

Another thing to think about that can happen, once the software is downloaded. Individuals have complained about viruses, malware, screen freezing, lockups, and so on. Theres only one TV software for PC I recommend that comes with 24/7 support. The PlayOnTV software is only compatible to Windows computers (desktop or laptop) and is quite popular today. However, its not free.

The other thing to think about is the streaming content delivered. Do you want to watch live TV and/or on-demand videos? How about sports, movies, TV shows, or news broadcasts? If searching for a way to use software to watch local TV channels from your area, good luck. Its best to purchase an indoor HDTV antenna, which is a very easy and cheap setup. Neither Cable nor satellite TV is needed and the picture quality is far better when using an antenna.

If interested in watching live sports, again no software will deliver this or not as well. Getting back to the pay-to-use software recommended previously, the technology brings together both free TV and subscription-based services (content providers). As for the latter, a paid subscription is required to watch, for instance, HBO Go, ESPN, TNT, etc. You get to create your own bundle and only pay for the content you want to watch online.

If no credit card or money, then of course the only option is freeware. This requires your due diligence to search online to find popular brands. The Readon TV Movie Radio Player software comes to mind. However, the software is only compatible to Windows XP, Vista, and 7. They do offer support but how good is their support is unknown.

There are better options out there than freeware. The pay-to-use software or better yet 3rd party web-based TV/VOD services are better. They are affordable and dont fall short of delivering the best of web TV entertainment. You can watch live sports, TV shows, movies and news broadcast from around the world. Everything can be access from one place, so theres no need to surf online to find a channel or TV program to watch.

Many individuals living outside the US search for TV software for PC for different reasons. This can include having no money, no credit card, or having an old computer/operating system. But whether individuals live in the US or another country, many get hooked on software. Many are not aware of non-software options.

If the goal still is to download a TV software, then the smart thing to do is protect your computer. First, optimize the computer to make it run faster. Run security software applications such as antivirus and malware scans to make sure nothing is harming the computer. If the virus software application is a good one, it should give warning when visiting a harmful website or downloading harmful software.

Never take for granted unknown or unpopular TV software are all good. Take precaution and use common sense. In fact, do a Google search for the name of the software followed by the word scam or complaint.

It connects to speakers or headphones through Bluetooth or stereo cable television which is 3.5 mm to access music from iHeartRadio, Spotify, TuneIn, Pandora, and its own Amazon Music. The Dot joins the Alexa to deliver information, weather condition, news, sports ratings, play music more quickly.

Echo Dot is a voice control, hands-free for playing any types of Music. Ask Alexa to play your favorite Artist, Music type, Category or any tune at all. Amazon Music Unlimited can play everything under the sun.

Wondering if Alexa can hear you from across the room with Music on? The answer is YES because it uses hands-free long-range microphones so even in a noisy environment, Alexa can still hear you. If you have multiple Dots in your House and wondering if they will all answer you at the same time, don't worry as Alexa is a program to answer you based on which you are in closest proximity with. Thanks to its Echo Spatial Perception, Alexa is intelligent enough.

The Dot is also a smart alarm clock with its unique built-in speaker, effective in waking you up and as a kitchen assistant timer too. Anywhere you may want a voice-controlled computer.

Echo Dot is continuously getting better and smarter, upgrading new updates and features to keep you updated in the latest Trends. It combined skills smart enough to order you aPizza at Domino's, or get you a car at Uber and more. Alexa is the main brain system of the Echo Dot and is in Cloud, so it is always installing updates. It can build a connection and memorize your vocabularies, your voice patterns, and preference.

It is starting its journey into the future with smart home automation collaboration. Using Alexa to controls thermostats, garage doors, sprinklers, lights, fans, switches, and more with gadgets from SmartThings, Ecobee, Philips Hue, Samsung, Nest, WeMo, and others are now possible. Just in the last couple of months, Amazon Inc. included countless brand-new abilities from third-party developers. Read more about the newest tied up with Control4.

When purchasing a phone case beware of the numerous storefronts and e-commerce sites asking for ridiculous amounts money for their high-end cases. Save the iphone repair shop costs and get a quality phone case from a no make brand. Unless the company has not tried at all to provide its customer base with a passable product, all phone cases will work the same. Usually you are paying high prices for the aesthetic design and the brand name or logo printed onto the case. The type of phone case you buy will depend on your personal style and preferences. It will also depend on how often you tend to drop your phone. If you're like me, this happens to be several times a day. If you're in Quebec like me check out some reviews of shops like this:

If you are trying to save money after buying a typically expensive smartphone, consider buying a less known brand. Often E-Bay is the best source for cheap phone cases, but it can be difficult to determine quality by looking at a picture. More often than not the poster is not located anywhere near you. I like to search websites like Kijiji for people living close to me who updated to a new phone and is selling a phone case that no longer fits their device. This means that the case shouldn't be damaged because the seller would want to keep the case had it fit the new phone. Since it doesn't fit their phone the case becomes completely useless. One man's garbage is another man's gold.

If you have a little bit of money to spend on a case the possibilities are seemingly endless. Again, the type of case you need will depend completely on how aggressively you use and drop your phone. I broke my screen several times while using typical cases that only cover the back and sides of my iPhone. Each screen repair costs sixty dollars and this is on the cheaper end of the scale. I highly recommend my new Otter Box case because I have dropped it at least fifty times since I bought it and my phone was completely protected each time. Surprisingly, the phone case is still in sellable condition even after all of the drops. Ironically the cost of an Otter Box case and at least when I purchased mine is the same as the cost of one screen replacement.

There are some minor details about my case that I'm not too happy about. Mainly the fact that although there is a slot in the case for the head phone jack to be found, the slot in the case and the headphone jack are not at all aligned. It's a minor inconvenience, but something to consider when looking at cases. Make sure your charger can fit properly into the charging slot as well. I've experienced needing to remove a phone case every time the phone was charging due to this lack of attention to detail by the manufacturer. The same thing goes for the lens of the camera built into the phone. If the case covers it, you will have to remove the case every time you want to take a picture. If you don't take many pictures then this won't bother you, but for Instagram and SnapChat users this can be extremely annoying.

My advice to anyone in need of a phone case is to be patient, but not too patient. Don't buy a case as soon as you see it because you may end up buying something that doesn't fit your needs. More importantly, don't wait too long to buy a case because the longer you wait the longer your phone remains vulnerable to devastating drops and shattered screens.

No matter whatever events you are planning for, a photo booth can surely add value to the event and entertain your guests at the best. However, to enjoy all these benefits, you have to be very careful about choosing the right provider with adequate facilities. Not just for the photo booth cabin, but also check for the camera, software, screen, backgrounds, and other components inside the photo booth.

An Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system is a kind of software that stores patient data that is collected during clinical trials. Normally, the data is recorded first on paper and then transferred into the system and saved in an eCRF (electronic case report form).
Clinical trials are increasingly using EDC software and are shifting to electronic records instead of paper records. Sites, CROs (contract research organizations), and sponsors have adopted clinical data management software to carry out both complex and simple trials in all research phases. Check out the video below to learn more:

While there are a lot of EDC vendors, there are also organizations that develop their own in-house systems. Most systems have somewhat varying features. EDC software, in any case, is generally meant to streamline the data collection process.

- Sponsors. The clinical trial sponsor owns the trial. Device, biopharma, and other life sciences firms sponsor the trials and have regulatory authorities (including the FDA) approve their medical innovations before their products are sold. Sponsors may hire various people who use the clinical trial management system in different roles.

Monitors working for the sponsor may virtually visit to the client sites to check data sources and the corresponding datas accuracy in the EDC system. Biostatisticians then help to plan for and analyze the collected data.

EDC system users are responsible for ensuring the trial data is usable and clean. The users may also hand in requests for queries (information) to the sites to resolve and clarify data issues.

- CROs. A contract research organization contracts with the sponsor to facilitate the conduct and planning of a trial. CROs, in certain trials, may do the trial on the sponsors behalf. There are also other trials wherein the CROs may only take analysis, monitoring, and data management roles.

In academia, they are called academic research organizations (AROs), data coordinating centers, or clinical trials units. Their management and coordinating functions are similar to their commercial counterparts functions.

- Sites. A site is the entity that collects and coordinates data from the clinical trial participants usually a clinic or hospital. The site-employed coordinators, which include nurses, will be tasked with inputting data into the studys system. The investigator of the site normally a physician in charge of patient care is tasked to review and electronically sign the data.

The Benefits of Clinical Data Management Software
Research organizations are starting to realize the advantages of eClinical solutions over other methods. You can benefit from an EDC system in the following methods:

- Quicker Data Access. An EDC system can save you time on query management and real-time data access. It also saves time at a studys end, enabling faster availability of the data to be analyzed. Moreover, it takes a relatively short amount of time (some take a few hours) to know how to use the EDC system.

- Data Security. The system is hosted online and entering the data is done on an interface that is web-based. Clinical trial software vendors make sure the data is backed-up and protected.

- Organization. An EDC system implementation increases clinical trials efficiency because of its navigation that is user-friendly. You can effortlessly find and filter what you need exactly. You can also store everything in only one location while using paper minimally.

- Accuracy. Data quality can be improved through EDC systems. You can add constraints on a form to prevent illogical or inaccurate values from being entered. A computerized system allows automatic calculations and legible entries for cleaner data.

- Compliance. An EDC system should comply with regulatory requirements. The EDC software must also have in place technical controls to ensure the integrity of the data. To maintain the system, SOPs (standard operating procedures) are vital to ensure that organizational and regulatory policies are met.

- Cost-Effectiveness. An EDC systems costs can be free. It can also be expensive. Prices vary and vendors may also charge for extra services and other fees. While you think that purchasing an EDC system may be a pricey investment, you will actually save money in the long run.

Successful Implementation

Several factors are considered when implementing clinical trial management software tools. Such factors include:

- Planning. The current clinical trial process should be laid out and then revised accordingly using EDC. It also helps prepare for a way to measure the EDCs impact.

- eClinical Trials. Make sure that your EDC system is compatible with an eClinical trial environment. Ensure your system allows eSource data collection, supports data interchange standards, and is poised to fit into electronic applications and processes for an entire clinical trial.

Conclusion

Nowadays, the integration of EDC with other kinds of software in the eClinical area (supply management, randomization, coding, adverse event reporting, submissions, etc.) is increasingly becoming beneficial and feasible. Being able to reliably and quickly import electronic data from imaging data, electronic health reports, and lab reports is also becoming prevalent.

The upsurge of electronic data capture software and independent standards for sharing and characterizing data are main enablers toward hastening productivity and decreasing the burden and cost linked to clinical trials.

Over the past 25 years or so, The influence of the Internet, and then the World Wide Web, has grown until it is simply a part of our modern way of living. In particular we have become more and more dependent on it for our entertainment. Thus watching videos on Youtube, downloading videos and music tracks etc. seems to have left the more traditional family entertainment output of your local or national radio station far behind. This is no longer the case. Traditional radio manufacturers now offer Internet Connectivity and Internet Radio Tuners integrated within their standard products. The video below illustrates the enhanced features and benefits to be found on a typical, modern Internet Radio:

These broadcasts can be accessed by anyone, anywhere in the world, providing they have internet access and an audio-capable listening device. This does not need to be a domestic Internet Radio product. Any kind of computer (Desktop, Laptop, Notebook, Tablet or Smartphone) will do.

It has been reported that over 15% of teenagers plus higher figures for adults, listen to Internet Radio every day as the work, rest and play. It should be no surprise that today's 'switched on' generation find that personal satisfaction can more readily be found across the wide spectrum of music genre and sub-genre available from all around the globe and is an integral part of what they are 'about'.

Gone is the gradual loss of signal as your distance from the transmitter increases. Gone is the interference effect of bad weather. Reception is no longer dependent on the output power of the base antenna. Coupled with all of this, today's Internet Technology (particularly its higher data speeds) ensures music quality levels even above that of shop-bought CD's.

The multitude of advantages that Internet Radio adds to the traditional concept of family listening would seem to indicate a re-birth of radio provided entertainment, ideally suited to the modern high speed world of Tablets and Smartphones.

What's so out of the ordinary when it comes to developing an on-line shopping cart for selling ducting parts on the internet? Anybody that works with ducting components will let you know, it's really rather hard to do, since there is an astonishing assortment of duct component dimensions, not to mention each and every one has a different sales price.

Normal dimension variables consist of particular lengths, diameters as well as angles and all these variances signifies that regular on-line shopping carts aren't able to handle the total amount of variables, without resorting to cataloguing the very same product again and again, with the only variant being the dimension, which renders working with the cart into something that is particularly bewildering and inconvenient for anyone trying to find all the parts they need from the merchandise.

Right here is an example of what we mean:

Let's say you intended to acquire a piece of straight, standard galvanized duct. This is a relatively straight forward unit, but the range of length and also diameter permutations is fairly considerable. Firstly there is the duct length. Common galvanised ducting is available in 3 preferred sizes:

- 0.5 of a meter,

- 1 meter and also

- 2 meters.

Next we should think about the vast array of diameters the item can be found in, in this instance we'll show the most typical diameters, which are as follows below:

As you can see, this means we have 3 different sizes and also 14 different diameters, so to establish an online store just for straight galvanised ductwork, it would require 42 individual catalogue units. Which is just for straight galvanised ductwork! There's a wide variety of other pieces people using galvanized ductwork could also need, for instance, lobsterback bends, branch parts, telescopic ducting, duct with door access, rings, gaskets, gates, valves, sweeps ... and so on, and moreover every one also has a number of diameters, lengths and even in some cases even more variables!

You could be thinking, that surely there are already shopping carts on the market that are capable of dealing with products with variables like shoes and clothing for instance can vary both sizes and colors and yes that's true, however when you change the colour or size of an item of clothing the price doesn't have to change along with it, and that's what's different in the range of ducting products, every different size has a different sales price and this is the complexity that the average online store doesn't cater for.

Can you envisage being a customer endeavoring to explore an online shopping cart to select and order the ductwork components that will be needed to put together an entire ductwork setup? How unfriendly and also complex would it be to try to navigate a seemingly never-ending list of separate ductwork pieces, all with differing diameters and lengths?

This complex bundle of variables has made web-based buying for ducting pieces monotonous and time consuming. Though not anymore! As Advanced Duct Systems (ADS) have recently fixed this conundrum by producing a custom made online store where a purchaser need only visit one individual component webpage to choose any kind of variable for that piece from a drop down selection, and have the pricings for any type of order of variables update real-time in the page on the e-commerce shopping store.

This makes on-line browsing and also shopping as easy as pie, as now you can buy numerous diameters as well as lengths from the one web page! You can likewise obtain comprehensive specs from the cart as a pdf from the exact same webpage.

So if you're in a trade which has to order ductwork units, I invite you to take into consideration the virtues of choosing Advanced Duct Systems (ADS) to purchase your goods online. Orders are sent right to their pick and pack establishments and you receive an order confirmation directed to you via e-mail. Gone are the days of faxing or dialling through your orders along with the potential of "you asked for one thing they heard something else" mistakes in orders is thankfully eliminated.

Why don't you check it out the next time you have to buy ducting pieces. Also don't forget, wholesale and trade customers will receive discount rates through being supplied a designated pass-code which gives them with discounted pricing.

Most companies today have a website, it is an expected form of marketing that everyone understands and is familiar with.

However website owners need to be aware that this innocent form of marketing can and in some cases be the death of the business. This is a very strange statement however, is it true because the website portal is also in many case the entrance for cyber-criminal to infiltrate the organisation. If cyber criminals get into the company website they can do untold amount of damage not only to the company but in many cases any person that has access the infected site.

A website owner is normally the business owner, and as such they must make sure that the websites are fully protected.
Business managers are still not patching and updating their websites and servers as often as they should. This in effect is leaving the front door open for the cyber-criminal to enter your home and take advantage of whatever they find.

Over the past three years it was reported that more than three quarters of websites scanned contained unpatched vulnerabilities, and in 2015 more than fifteen percent of which were deemed critical.

One of the major factors in vulnerabilities is the fact that the website administrators do not update the software as an when an update is released. Plugins are also a major problem, many websites are built by building blocks of code all added to the source code used by the website developer. These plugins tend to be problematic; they are normally designed by developers who have created a code that allows the site to perform a particular function. However, they tend to concentrate on the function rather than the security of the plugin.

In a recent report it suggested that in 2015 there were 679 vulnerabilities in such well known plugins including Adobe Flash Player, Apple and Chrome plugins. This was a significant increase compared to 2014 which a similar comparison shows there were 336 vulnerabilities.

Website administrators must do their due diligence on any plugins that they choose to upload, make sure that they update the plugins regularly and make sure to watch the media and security lists for warnings.

As stated previously the website can be a life line for many companies, allowing many people access to the companys products and services. However it can also be the death if the companys servers and website become compromised by cyber criminals. Email security is a facility that every compnay should adopt, encrypted emails are a solution to this problem.

Although good HTML and CSS skills are certainly important in creating quality websites, quality web design also requires artistic skill as well as a good understanding of how people behave on the internet. This is why web design should be considered a form of art rather than a purely technical skill, because a website needs to appeal to its audience.

Most people take well-designed websites for granted, and this is because they don't really understand the amount of work that goes into making these sites functional and easy to use. The truth, however, is that a lot of tests and modifications are done on a website before it is even allowed to go live. This is particularly true if you want your site to have a particular look or if you want to promote a specific brand.

Consider, for example, YouTube or Amazon. Both sites have their own distinct look that sets them apart from all other sites on the internet. This is because Amazon's and YouTube's sites are their brand, and this is one of the most important concepts in web design. So when you want to start your own site, remember that it's not enough to know how to write or read code. You will also need to develop a specific style for the site that you're creating.

Tips for Quality Web Design

If you're planning to create your own website then here are several tips to help you get started.

- Look at websites that you like and try to imitate some of the styles that they use. For example, if you're planning to set up an e-commerce site then you should look to Amazon or eBay for inspiration.
- Try to create something unique. Unique websites are usually memorable, and you should try to create web pages that reflects a particular brand or aesthetic ideal.
- Try to use as a few web design tools. One good example is Bootstrap, which offers easy-to-use templates for formatting web pages.
- Test your site as often as possible. Although web design certainly does require a lot of artistic and technical skill, you will still need to check your web pages for code errors, broken links and other similar problems.
- Finally, you will need to update your site regularly. People like new content, and you should give them that as often as possible. Whether it's new articles and images, or fresh videos and podcasts, giving your audience something to look forward to will keep them coming back for more.
